I felt the baby move this morning! It was the first time for me, although Kelly has been able to feel it for a while. I had tried before when she said the baby was active, but never with any luck. I was about to give up again this morning when I finally felt it. [:D]

You know how sometimes when you press your fingers against something you can feel your pulse in your fingertips? It felt a lot like that, only stronger, and it didn’t happen ~60 times per minute like I could feel it in my other fingers. I felt her kick with the ring finger of my right hand. (I’m sure no one cares about that detail, but I wanted to write it down for my own benefit.)

That was really cool. As far as I can remember it is the first time I’ve ever felt any baby kick at all. In two weeks this may be old-hat, but it was pretty exciting for me this time.
